Dutchess Outreach was started in 1974 in the Trinity United Methodist Church as the Neighborhood Outreach and Discovery Program providing advocacy and referrals to meet both temporary and long-term needs. Mary Keeley was the first director. When Community Development funding was received in 1976, it became the Satellite Citizen Center. Programs were gradually added: the Food Bank and Emergency Assistance in 1976, the Furniture Exchange in 1977, the Children’s Clothes Closet in the early 80’s, the Lunch Box in late 1982, the GIFTS program in 1995, and lead agency for Acts of Kindness in 1999. An annual Coat Drive and Giveaway is held in October and November. The agency was incorporated as Dutchess Outreach in 1981 when it also became a United Way Agency. The agency moved to its current location at the Family Partnership Center in 1998. The Lunch Box followed in 1999. |
